Answer:

The optimal stocking level is 45 muffins.

Explanation:

First we have to calculate the Overage cost Co = Purchase price - Salvage value = $0.2 - 0 = $0.2

Then the Underage cost Cu = Selling price - Purchase price =$0.80 - $0.2 = $0.60

Service level = Cu / (Cu + Co) = $0.60/($0.60+$0.2) = $0.75

Hence, optimal stocking level = Minimum demand + Service level *(Maximum demand - Minimum demand)

optimal stocking level = 30 + 0.75*(50-30) = 45

The optimal stocking level is 45 muffins.

Optimal stocking level = 68.75 Muffins

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

The price of the stock today is $54.61

Explanation:

The stock of this company pays a constant dividend for a defined period of time after equal intervals. Thus, it is just like an annuity. To calculate the price of such a stock, we will use the present value of annuity formula:

Assuming that the dividend is paid at the end of the period.

Present Value of Annuity = Dividend * [(1 - (1+r)^-n) / r]

Where,

  • r is the required rate of return
  • n is the number of years of annuity

The price of the stock today is,

P0 = 8.45 * [(1 - (1+0.13)^-15) / 0.13]

P0 = $54.607 rounded off to $54.61
